Use a revup engine on a non revup car
A friend has damaged his engine due to oil comsuption. He has a 2003 model and he has found a used revup engine with very low milleage, is possible to mount that engine on his car? it's matter of just use also the revup ECU or it's something else needed?
Any help will be appreciated

I'm on engine #1, and I autocross mine all over the west coast (and three trips, two of which were towing my little tire trailer behind the Z, to the National Championships in Topeka, KS).
40K miles, no "oil consumption" problems.
As far as the original question, you'll need the engine and ECU -- at least. If you have ABS, you'll probably want the ABS computer as well, since my 2005 doesn't throw ABS codes if I left-foot brake.

Perhaps it could be the driver. It occurs during decel. Nissan is aware of the problem and has released a new motor hand assembled in Japan. https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/232332-revup-oil-consumption-tsb-and-discussion.html

I also don't have any oil comsuption on my revup.
About my friend, if he can't use the revup, could use the crankshaft and the rods from the revup only?
